The general's mansion is like a dragon's pond and a tiger's den, but the general feels that he is a "easy to talk" person.
Tan Hao was nervous at the beginning, but now after chatting with Cao Su for a few words, his mentality gradually calmed down.
"Zongzhu Tan is a master of martial arts. If you are asked to work in the government, you will be overqualified and underused."
"I have an idea. I don't know if Sect Master Tan is interested in it."
Cao Su said with a smile. There was no trace of General Pingbei's airs in his conversation.
But Tan Hao didn't dare to show any slightness. Now this man was about to become the overlord of the north.
So when he heard that Cao Su had an idea, Tan Hao immediately expressed his position: "General, it doesn't matter if you say so. Tan will go through fire and water without hesitation."
"Okay, Sect Leader Tan is indeed quick to talk and has the qualities of a heroic man!"
Cao Su laughed and stood up from his seat. His huge and burly body was like a demon, full of oppressive aura.
Although Tan Hao had a smile on his face, he couldn't help but take half a step back.
Cao Su asked in a deep voice: "Has Sect Leader Tan ever heard of the Four Sects of Hebei?"
The Four Sects of Hebei are the collective name given by the Jianghu people to the strongest sects in the four states of Youjiguang and Youzhou. Among them, the leading sect in Youzhou refers to the Piaoxue Sect, which is the king and hegemon in Youbei.
The remaining three sects are Chiyun Sect in Jizhou, Dingtian Palace in Guangzhou and Shijue Sect in Bingzhou.
As for the other two states in the north, Liaozhou is not included in the collective name because the martial arts power is not prosperous, while Lingzhou is because the martial arts power is too prosperous and there is no leading leading sect, so it is difficult to use it as a separate collective name.
.
Tan Hao is the leader of the sect in the Youzhong area. He has been around the world for many years, and he has naturally heard the names of the Four Hebei Sects: "The Four Hebei Sects will probably become the Three Hebei Sects soon."
Tan Hao's words were full of flattery towards Cao Su.
It is inevitable for Cao Su to sharpen his sword and fight against Piaoxue, and without Yun Zhengxin's signature card, it will be impossible to stop Cao Su unless an old monster from the Xuan Realm comes forward.
It is said that old monsters in the Xuan Realm are not allowed to interfere in worldly affairs.
Tan Hao's mind was racing, guessing the purpose of Cao Su's sudden mention of this title.
Cao Su shook his head and said: "Zongzhu Tan is a smart man. He should know that the court hates two kinds of people the most."
Cao Su changed the topic and started talking about the imperial court again.
What does the affairs of the imperial court have to do with him, Tan Hao? Do you really regard him as a lackey of the imperial court?
Tan Hao felt a little unhappy, but a gloomy smile appeared on his face unconsciously: "I hope the general will make it clear."
Cao Su paused for a moment: "The imperial court is at a time when it is hiring, and all the talents in the world are available. But when there are more people, the good and the bad are mixed together, and the good and the bad are all gathered together. And there are two kinds of people that the imperial court hates the most.
"
"One kind is a person who is both indifferent and has an unstable mind; the other kind is a person who eats everything and tries to get by."
"The imperial court is no better than the Jianghu sect, and it definitely does not support idle people."
When Cao Su said this, the warning was already very obvious.
There was a coldness in his smiling eyes, which was like the sharpest green-edged sword, piercing the depths of Tan Hao's eyes.
Tan Hao panicked: "The general is absolutely right."
Cao Su's knock came too suddenly, and the two of them had obviously been chatting just now.
Tan Hao felt that Cao Su, who was close to him at this moment, had extremely strong evil energy on his body. This evil energy appeared in the surroundings like a substance, causing the air pressure around him to become lower and lower, as if he was suffocating at any time.
This is the evil spirit formed by killing many people...
Tan Hao's heart tightened, a cold sweat ran down his back, and he felt guilty unconsciously.
Because the two types of people Cao Su mentioned seem to be able to get along with him, is it possible that Cao Su is going to kill the donkey now? I heard that people in the court like to do this kind of thing the most.
This time it was really a sheep entering the tiger's mouth...Tan Hao smiled bitterly in his heart.
Cao Su saw Tan Hao's sincere attitude and stared at him silently for a while.
The atmosphere in the air was condensed, so quiet that it seemed like the air was no longer flowing.
After a long time, Cao Su suddenly spoke again and smiled lightly: "Yes, I'm talking about Yun Zhengxin."
"Yun Zhengxin is the person that the imperial court hates the most. If he were a little smarter, why would he fight me to the death? There are many ways to coexist peacefully in this world."
Cao Su unexpectedly belittled his opponent who had been killed before.
Tan Hao wiped a cold sweat and repeatedly echoed: "The general is right."
"So, Sect Leader Tan, you can no longer be Yun Zhengxin."
Cao Su didn't say what he had in mind until now. He just used words to stimulate and pressure Tan Hao, which made Tan Hao very uncomfortable and stood in a dilemma in the meeting hall.
Fortunately, there was no one else in the meeting hall, only two people discussing secretly.
Cao Su turned around and felt that he was almost done.
Using Tan Hao was a helpless move. As long as there were other martial arts people who came to him, he didn't have to use this person.
Cao Su turned the topic to business: "Sect Master Tan, have you ever been to Yuzhou?"
"Yuzhou?"
Tan Hao was stunned.
Yuzhou is the largest state in Zhongzhou, and it is also the only way for the HB area to enter the Shendu territory.
Yuzhou has a large population and a large area. It has had many sects since ancient times. Its martial arts power is only stronger than that of several northern states.
However, due to the Wanping Rebellion, the entire Yuzhou is now somewhat weak and exhausted.
Cao Su suddenly mentioned Yuzhou now, which made Tan Hao confused.
Cao Su did not explain in detail, but said directly: "Sect Master Tan, if you are asked to go to Yuzhou to develop a certain sect, would you be willing? Do you have confidence?"
Tan Hao suddenly raised his head and his eyes lit up.
Cao Su's target is actually Yuzhou?
Cao Su looked at Tan Hao with a smile and said calmly: "With my gang leader and Sect Master Tan's methods, Sect Master Tan will be able to gain a firm foothold in Yuzhou in a short time. You also said it just now
, the four sects in Hebei have become the three sects in Hebei. I think the world of Hebei may not be stable in the future. If Sect Master Tan establishes a sect in Yuzhou and safely accepts the warriors from his hometown, wouldn't it be possible to expand and develop rapidly? "
Only then did Tan Hao understand what Cao Su meant.
Cao Su actually wanted to place him directly in Yuzhou for development.
Tan Hao's heart suddenly started beating wildly.
After all, he is also a person who has enjoyed the treatment of being a leader. Now he is living under someone else's roof and hiding from XZ. He has really lost some of his prestige in the world.
If the sect can be re-established in Yuzhou and supported by Cao Su in the future, I am afraid it will be easy to continue to grow bigger and stronger.
By then he will be considered someone behind his back, who would dare to mess with him easily?
Why do you have to be hunted down with no way out just because of a treasure and a secret book like before?
When Tan Hao thought of this, he immediately gritted his teeth and agreed, knelt down on one knee and said, "Tan is willing to obey the general's orders, even to the death."
The level of refusing to refuse even if you die is higher than refusing to refuse. Although Cao Su didn't care about this kind of scene, seeing Tan Hao quickly understanding him, he felt emotional in his heart. Although Tan Hao had evil intentions,
He is outstanding in all aspects of ability and force, and is indeed the best candidate for him to plant his nails.
He helped Tan Hao up: "Sect Master Tan, you will still be the sect leader from now on."
"Strive to let the Jinyan Sect flourish in Yuzhou."
Tan Hao was so excited that he nodded repeatedly.
After the two chatted for a while, Tan Hao resigned.
Not long after Tan Hao left, Cao Su met with several generals.
Then Zhang Ke came in a hurry: "General, General Wang and Wei's military advisor are here!"
"Which General Wang and which Wei Military Advisor?"
Cao Su suddenly raised his head, slightly surprised: "Wang Meng and Wei Kai, are they here too?"
"Please come quickly!"
--------------------------
Wang Meng and Wei Kai arrived in Youzhou Prefecture after going through all kinds of hardships.
As a result, the news I heard was that the Youbei League had been defeated, and Yun Zhengxin and his eldest disciple died on the spot, killed by Cao Su's sword.
"Ah this..."
Both of them were dumbfounded. They knew that Cao Su was in great danger this time, so they came all the way from the capital of God.
He got all the transfer orders in hand, but to his surprise, Cao Su solved them all.
Then the two of them went to find Cao Su, but were blocked outside General Pingbei's Mansion. Because of Cao Su's seclusion, they never saw Cao Su.
The soldiers under his command also had difficulty settling in for the time being, so they relied on the help of the Liu family to find some restaurants in the city as a place to stay.
"I didn't expect Cao Su to be so strong."
Wang Meng was very emotional. A few years ago, when Cao Su first went to his martial arts school to become a disciple, he was still a very thin civilian boy. He didn’t expect that his talent in martial arts was so good and his progress was so fast. He was already killing people in his early twenties.
Have you become the leader of the Youbei Alliance?
"I heard that the leader of the Youbei League, Yun Zhengxin, is a first-class master."
First grade!!!
Wang Meng has not even entered the third level at this time. If he encounters the upper level alone, it will be a dead end.
Fighting against Yipin was something he couldn't even imagine.
Unconsciously, the gap between him and Cao Su has become wider and wider.
"It's terrible, the speed of progress."
Although Wang Meng and Cao Su have a love for passing on their skills, Cao Su's current combat power is much greater than his, and their status is completely different. Wang Meng doesn't dare to use this as something to show off. He just thinks of this.
At the time, it still felt like a dream, so unreal.
"It seems like he never has a bottleneck period. This is the scariest thing about him."
Wei Kai is good at observation. Judging from his several contacts with Cao Su, he found that the biggest feature of Cao Su's martial arts is that there is no bottleneck period.
"This is talent." Wang Meng said with emotion: "Ordinary warriors may be at the peak of a certain realm, and one card lasts for three to five years, seven or eight years. The good time is wasted in the bottleneck period, but Cao Su broke through all the way, and soon
He has reached the second level, and his true combat power has reached the first level, and even Yun Zhengxin is no match for him."
"On the new Feng Chu ranking, I'm afraid Cao Su will be ranked in the top two. I don't know who is in front, between him and Sima Changfeng."
As a list that collects young talents from all over the world, the Phoenix Young List attracts great attention from the court to the Jianghu.
It seems that the release time of the new issue of Longhu Pavilion is not far away.
The two of them were filled with emotions and thoughts. Finally, after waiting for a day, they received a notice from Zhang Ke and went to General Pingbei Mansion in Youzhou.
First of all, the imposing door of the General's Mansion shocked both of them.
Then he followed Zhang Ke through the pavilions and pavilions of the General's Mansion and arrived at the meeting hall.
In the hall, Cao Su, who had already received many waves of people, was sitting there.
They hadn't seen each other for a long time. When they met Cao Su this time, they found that Cao Su was much darker than before.
"Master Wei, the owner of the museum, I haven't seen you for a long time."
Cao Su nodded and welcomed the two of them inside.
The two looked at each other and smiled. Cao Su's statement made sense.
It seemed that the distance between the two of them was suddenly shortened.
The two of them felt a sense of warmth in their hearts unconsciously.
"Don't leave when you're here. I'm getting married soon and I'm going to invite you two to attend." Cao Su smiled slightly.
Wang Meng and Wei Kai nodded at the same time: "Definitely, definitely."
----------------------------
A few days later, Youzhou Mansion.
The Cao family reopened various matters regarding Cao Su's wedding.
Two days later, the Pingbei Army gathered outside the northern part of Youzhou City. Cao Su personally led 30,000 horse and infantry troops and went directly to the north.
A large amount of grain and grass were continuously extracted from Tuxian Mountain and Youzhou Prefecture.
Cao Su left Wang Meng and Wei Kai to guard Youzhou Prefecture, and the other top-level generals such as Wang Qing, Hong Ding, Heng Xuesong, and Du Ning all accompanied the army on the expedition.
In addition, there are Zhang Ke, Li Li, Luo Yi, Shi Yong, Ma Chao and many other heroes at the middle level of the power realm.
As for the counselors accompanying the army, Wu Ming stayed at the base camp, while Weng Xiao and Zhongjin, as Cao Su's right-hand men, accompanied the army on the expedition.
It can be said that Cao Su had a strong army and strong horses. The civil servants and generals gathered together, and the army was huge, and they went straight to the north.
The first one is Tongfu City in front of Yu'an Valley.
Tongfu City serves as a buffer zone in the middle, and the people in the city have dreamed of the Pingbei Army marching north countless times.
Now when Cao Suzhen's army came to attack, everyone looked away.
Especially the Qingyang Sect, which has already entered the "destruction process".
Cao Su captured Tongfu City effortlessly, and then led his army through the Yu'an Valley and set foot on the Youbei Land.
The North is wider, but the land is also more barren and colder.
Cao Su's army walked for several days and easily captured some small towns.
We are getting closer and closer to Piaoxue City.
At this time, Cao Su's army was dozens of miles away in the north.
Under a high mountain that is covered with ice and snow all year round, is a huge city.
Along the way, there were sparsely populated villages, and the sudden appearance of such a huge city seemed particularly abrupt.
Piaoxue City has been called the "miracle of falling snow" since ancient times. No one can believe that the Youzhou people can build such a huge city so far north.
However, the people of Youzhou did it, and Piaoxue City also became larger and larger over the course of hundreds or even thousands of years of development.
Today's Piaoxue City, Piaoxue Mountain and Piaoxue Sect are almost integrated and are a community of interests tied together by a rope.
During the heyday of Piaoxue Sect, after Yun Zhengxin developed the Youbei League in recent years, Piaoxue City also took advantage of the situation and truly became the core of the north.
During this period of time, it was really a very beautiful time.
Countless warriors regard Piaoxue Mountain as a holy land, and many warriors come from all directions to Piaoxue City to try their luck. Many warriors even kneel down and worship under Piaoxue Mountain, hoping to join the Piaoxue Sect.
Unfortunately, the good times did not last long.
A few days ago, shocking news suddenly came from the south.
Yun Zhengxin, leader of the Youbei League and leader of the Piaoxue Sect, raided Youzhou Mansion and was beheaded by Pingbei General Cao Su in the street!
The entire Piaoxue City instantly became extremely cold, as if it had entered winter again.
The coldness of winter has not yet passed, but the sky in Piaoxue City suddenly collapsed.
